There is an enhancement request in for a formatBeforePublish parameter, akin to the one in the MQTT binding. That would do the trick, if implemented.

enhancement

It would be great if the HTTP binding could implement the equivalent to the MQTT… binding's `formatBeforePublish` feature. This would enable, for example, publishing a formatted JSON string inclusive of a variable without having to first use a rule and proxy Item. ## Your Environment ```yaml runtimeInfo: version: 3.2.0 buildString: Release Build locale: en-GB systemInfo: configFolder: /etc/openhab userdataFolder: /var/lib/openhab logFolder: /var/log/openhab javaVersion: 11.0.13 javaVendor: Azul Systems, Inc. javaVendorVersion: Zulu11.52+13-CA osName: Linux osVersion: 5.11.22-5-pve osArchitecture: amd64 availableProcessors: 2 freeMemory: 316363048 totalMemory: 536870912 bindings: - astro - gpstracker - http - jellyfin - mqtt - network ```
